This Morning: Rylan clears record after Chris Hughes ‘fight’

Rylan Clark-Neal recently made headlines after revealing that Katie Price has ’52 screenshots’ of alleged messages with Love Island star Chris Hughes after they became embroiled in a vicious Twitter war.

While it was more recently reported that the presenter got into a ‘fight’ with the couple at the Specsavers’ Spectacle Wearer of the Year event, in Northumberland Avenue, on October 10, after it was claimed that Chris’ girlfriend Olivia Attwood had called the former The X Factor star ‘Katie Price’s lapdog’.

However, Rylan was quick to set the record straight on his celebrity focused segment on This Morning.

Talking about the reports, the 28-year-old said: “I was hosting the Specsavers awards last night, but there’s this big story I was ‘restrained’ because I was having a ‘bust up’ with Chris Hughes from Love Island.

“This started on Monday, when I was doing my job, and obviously talking about this whole Katie Price and Chris Hughes messaging thing. And Katie’s reply, having her say – she’s got these screenshots.

“With all due respect with everyone involved, I don’t care. It’s not my relationship. But obviously my job is to do that.”

He added: “Last night I was asked a question by a journalist, saying: ‘What do you think of Olivia Attwood’s comments about you?’

“I said: ‘I’ve got no idea what you’re on about’, I genuinely had no idea.

“As this journalist asked these questions, they both walked in. So I went: ‘Give me a second’, so I went over to Olivia, I said: ‘Babe, I’ve just got to ask you quickly, some journalist has just asked me some random thing about a lap dog. What is that about?’

“She went: ‘I have no idea what you’re going on about’, I went: ‘Don’t worry about it babe, honestly, it’s fine’.

“So I worked with Chris a few weeks ago on Celeb Ghost Hunt and I went: ‘You alright Chris?’ And he didn’t answer me, I was like, hold up, hold up, I like a turn you know what I mean. I went Chris, like that, she said: ‘I think he’s got the hump about this Katie Price thing’.

“I went: ‘What, are you joking?’ You know me when I get irate, I don’t row with anyone, I had a word with Chris anyway, long story short, I went back to the journalist and said: ‘I have no idea what you’re going on about’. I had a chat with Chris straight after, he got wrong end of the stick, he thought I had done some interview – a bit of crossfire.”

To which Phil said: “So end of the story is, nothing happened.”

Rylan added: “End of the story, is I had a lovely text from Chris on my way home: ‘It’s real lovely to see you again, so sorry for what happened last night’.

“There was no bust up, I was not restrained. I’ve got nothing against Chris and Olivia – they’re lovely people.”

Although he added later on: “On a serious note, there’s claims I’ve gone up into Olivia’s face, please use your words and word choices wisely.
